What happens when a Jedi Initiate dies?
It cannot always be prevented, the galaxy is a dangerous place, especially for children, and the Jedi are still only mortal.
Accidents happen. Illnesses exist.
Tragedies do too.
The Crèchemasters are highly trained to prevent that, of course, but they too are only mortal. They too can fail.
The death of an Initiate is a heavy burden, for the entire Temple. It doesn't happen often, but when it does it is a heavy burden. It is from that burden that one of the Order's most sacred traditions stems from.
They may die an Initiate, but they will not join the Force without guidance.
When an Initiate dies, they automatically gain the rank of Padawan – no matter their age. They will posthumously be taken in by a Master and be gifted a braid and a lineage. If they already found their crystal and built their saber, these too will be taken care of by their new Master.
Some Masters of such Ghost-Padawans, especially those who had a bond before their passing, will live the following years as if they had a living student. They will not take on another until the Force or they themselves deems them ready, at which point the High Council will hold a honorary Knighting.
Because while the Order might lose an Initiate, no Initiate will ever be left alone.
i was at the beach with my family yesterday. we picked up pretty rocks that we liked, by ourselves. my cousin showed me one that he liked, and i got my uncle to wash off one that i liked in the ocean. my rocks are different from my brother’s rocks, which are different from my aunt’s rocks, and on and on through my family. but we all picked up rocks.
the thing is, that beach isn’t particularly lonely. it wasn’t crowded, but we certainly weren’t the only ones picking stones.
it got me thinking about how so many people have done the same thing: picked up pretty rocks at that beach. but i saw my pretty rocks, and i didn’t really look at the rocks that my dad did, or that my cousin did. and so many people have picked up their pretty rocks but ignored the ones i found, the ones i have now.
there’s a metaphor in there somewhere, i know it.
So obsessed with the idea of a whumpee being defiant to caretaker because in the past getting care only made the torture so much worse, still not realizing that there is no more torture and it's time to heal
and they have that "oh" moment when they actually find out they're safe
I really want a science fiction story where aliens come to invade earth and effortlessly wipe out humanity, only to be fought off by the wildlife.
They were expecting military resistance. They weren’t counting on bears.

The horrors persist but so do we
Because it could have been us.

My gel might not be the same as yours but my doctor (who specializes in HRT and trans health and has won awards) said it doesn’t matter exactly when you take it.
It just has to be in the safe areas (avoid your chest/groin, hopefully self-explanatory), it has to dry without being touched (the dose I’m at takes ~20 minutes), and you can’t double-dose within twelve hours. So, for me, if I put the stuff on around say ten at night (2200) I have to wait until ten the next morning (1000) to put on the next dose.
Most people do it in the morning if they shower in the evening, since you should ideally wait 4 ish hours iirc before submerging the gel site.
HELLO PEOPLE OF TUMBLR WHO MAY TAKE TESTOGEL. I REQUIRE ADVICE! MY DOCTOR TAKES A LONG TIME TO RESPOND.
Anyway, I take my testogel in the mornings, at 8am if I can. I'm disabled so I do end up missing a few days from forgetting or not having enough energy in the morning to do it, AND I want to start swimming in the mornings, but I know you can't shower within 6 hours of application and I assume swimming in a public pool is not the best idea, I don't want to contaminate people. Is it possible to switch to applying it at night? I'm going to ask my doctor whenever he next decides to give a fuck about me but I thought I'd ask anyway 😭
